'She will be free to dance, to sing ..... to marry if she wants, to marry WHO she wants, to remain single, or to fall in love with another woman,' read Headey's pledge.

AceShowbiz - Ready to welcome her second child, a baby daughter, in less than six weeks, Lena Headey has publicly declared her daughter would be free to love another woman. She wrote the pledge on charity Plan International USA's website on Wednesday, May 20, during when she served as guest blogger.
"I am having a baby girl in six weeks. You have all been so lovely in your messages to me, and I thank you for that," she began writing. "My daughter will have freedom of choice. She will be free to dance, to sing, to be educated in the fields that spark her passion, to marry if she wants, to marry WHO she wants, to remain single, or to fall in love with another woman."
Headey went on writing, "She'll be able to wear what she wants, put on lipstick, and read books that spark debate and expand her mind. She will be loved, protected, respected, and celebrated." The 41-year-old actress then concluded on the website, "All these things that should be, and will be, basic human rights, are a promise to my daughter. My humble request is that you give what you can and maybe - just maybe - we can bring about the change we all wish to see."
Headey announced her second pregnancy back in February this year, saying in a statement, "I'm happy to confirm that I'm having my second child this summer." Shortly thereafter, she confirmed that she's pregnant with a baby girl. The Queen Cersei of HBO's "Game of Thrones" has yet to share the identity of her daughter's father. She already has a four-year-old son Wylie with ex-husband Peter Loughran.
